Dear Renata, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the appraisal. The presented object appears to be a painting made in oil or acrylic paint on canvas with 30 x 40 cm. The painting depicts a winter landscape with farmhouses in Russia and has the title The courtyard from childhood. It was made in 2001 by the Russian artist Yuriy Petrovich Grachev. Sadly no additional information for an artist with this name is given by reference books and databases. Comparable objects were recently not offered and sold on the international auction market. This piece is in good condition and no severe damage is visible in the images. A fair market estimation would be between 300 to 500 USD. This estimate is based on recently recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary. With kind regards, George
